บททั้งหมดของ Mr. CEO, Marry Me On Conditions [The CEO's Replaced Bride]: บทที่ 231 - บทที่ 240

Christian"Mr. Scott, Mr. Fox and Mr. Dave want you to join them in room no. 76. They have something urgent to talk about", a woman says. As I strive to look at her clearly, I get to know she's Mr. Fox's assistant. My head is aching so badly after just two shots. Heck! Why did I even take the next one? My vision goes slightly blurry as I gasp."Strange! Why? I thought it was just a party. They didn't tell me they are gonna talk about work", I scoff.I'm not at all ready to talk about work. It would be so unprofessional and embarrassing if they find me almost drunk. "I— I don't know", she stutters. "That's what Mr. Fox said and he has already gone to the room with Mr. Dave"Dammit!I have no other option.Taking lazy steps, I come back to the hallway and it's noisy all around. The hallroom isn't too much dark but due to my vision getting blurry, I can hardly see anything around. However, I spot Kane a few feet away from there. He's still near the counter. He waves at me, asking wher

Ivanna "Chris!" I yelp, rushing towards him and immediately holding him by his arms. "Chris, are you okay?"I touch his cheek gently, scanning his face. His eyelids are slumping down and his body seems too heavy as if he can't even handle his weight."What hap—" I pause, sniffing something. "Are you— are you drunk?"He curls up his face, leaning against the wall and pushing his body back to his feet."Yeah. A— a bit. But I'm fine", he groans.He looks away and it seems like he's deliberately not looking at me. He hasn't looked at me ever since he entered. Maybe, because he's drunk. But I feel there's something more than that. He's sounding so pressed. "Okay. Come. Let me help you to change. You want a shower?" I ask.He walks past me, shoving my hands away. "I'll do it myself, Ivanna. Go and sleep"It leaves me in quite a shock. I can see he's unable to do anything properly. He just takes out random clothes that he doesn't even wear at night. "Chris!" I reach him and hold his wrist

I don't know what's wrong with Christian. He's acting strange. Ever since he woke up, he has literally said 'I love you' to me like twenty times. It's not like I don't love it whenever he says it but it all feels so strange to me. He even skipped the office today as he's not feeling well with the hangover. It's actually good. He has been working continuously without any breaks. Kane told me that there is too much mess in the company, almost near to losses. Christian never told me about that. I don't know how many things he has been dealing with. I feel his long arms spiralling around my waist when I take out warm waffles on the plate. "Smells so good", he mumbles, rubbing his nose against my neck. "I know right. That's why I love waffles""I'm not praising the waffles, Mrs. Scott", I hear him chuckle. "Nothing smells better than you"I bite on my lower lip, sensing my cheeks heating up. "Chris! Not in the damn kitchen""Do I need a specific place to flirt with my wife?""Yes. Beca

ChristianWe reach Chrissie's school before the bell rings. With my damn phone kept shut, I'm feeling so light and free today that I can't express it in words. And I watch Ivanna properly from head to toe after a long time. She has worn a lavender tank top, paired with black palazzo. Her hair is half tied at the top and the rest is touching her waist. My eyes graze near her ear, spotting the rose gold ear pins I got her like four to five years back. She still has those. My smile only widens as I notice each detail of her. In short, she's looking incredibly cute, of course, the most beautiful, of course, the sexiest. "We're not on a date, Mr. Scott", her chirping voice brings me back to my senses as I grin. "Let me remind you. We're here to pick our daughter up""It's not less than a date, right?" I chuckle as we walk through the narrow parkway. "Don't get started here. Behave", she shoots me a glare like a grandma as I nod. She cracks up watching me nod when I intertwine my fingers

ChristianI'll be waiting till tomorrow. As she trusts me, I need to trust her. I need to trust that she'll understand me. I fear if I keep hiding this from her, Thea will take advantage of it.After whatever happened yesterday, that woman had the guts to fill poison in Ivanna's head today. I don't think she's gonna give up so easily. But I'm no less. She thinks our relationship is like those weak relationships she has seen till now. She has been surrounded by so many toxic and negative relationships that she believes all marriages are a facade and full of lies and betrayals. She has never seen a beautiful marriage ever in her life. That's why she's so fucking overconfident that I'm attracted to her when my life, my world, my existence everything starts with Ivanna and ends with Ivanna.She'll see her assumptions getting wrong.While caressing Ivanna's hair and thinking about all this, I hear Ivanna slowly snoring. I look down and stare at her beautiful face for a while. I could te
